the united states of america so what was temporary has now been made permanent is a huge historic victory for democracy today we did learn late today that the obama administration unfortunately in our view has put in a notice of appeal indicating. that they plan to appeal this to the second circuit and probably ultimately to the supreme court we think this is ill advised because it contradicts president obama's campaign statements it contradicts his criticism of his own legislation in his signing statements and he knows as a former constitutional law professor that this is wholly unconstitutional because this language is so vague in this law and you gave some of the language earlier it talks about substantial support for associated forces and if any journalist or activists is seen as reporting or offering opinions about groups that could somehow be linked not just to al qaeda but to any opponent of the u.s. or even opponents of our allies they could be sent to a military prison indefinitely without counsel potentially forever because the end of hostilities has no meaning so this is this i

david walker, the former comptroller general of the united states. we caught up with him on a bus tour through swing states with a group he founded, the comeback american initiative. here is what he told us. >> what keeps me up at night is the deteriorating financial condition of the country,ess clacountry,ess escalating deficits and debt and what it could mean to our future as a country and my grandchildren. this is not an unsolvable problem. the greatest threat to america's future is not terrorism. it is not some country. it is our own fiscal irresponsibility. during the past five or so years, i have been to 49 states doing town hall meetings. what i've found is that the american people are actually a lot smarter than politicians realize. the united states is a great country but it is not exempt from the laws of prudent finance. you can't spend a lot more money than you take in and charge it to the credit card and not expect to have a day of reckoning. a day of reckoning could look like what's happening in europe where all of a sudden, people reali

let's watch the secretary. >> let me state very clearly and i hope it is obvious that the united states government had absolutely nothing to do with this video. we absolutely reject its content and its message. >> why doesn't romney say that? would that offend one of his people? these people that keep staring up wars by burning koran, flushing down the toilet, paying on them, whatever they are doing lately, is doing nothing but killing american soldiers. david? >> chris, romney has painted himself into a corner as the no apology guy, mr. never back down. there are a lot of people on the republican right who are bought into this idea that there's a clash of civilizations going on. you see this every day on the internet and i guess romney in ap a kind of political opportunist way does not want to offend people that are going to be supporters of his. he's got to break out of that. he just -- every time a foreign policy issue comes up, he hits a clinker and he just comes across as a guy who doesn't have a feel for the way the war works. who talks through sound bites. we'll see whether he ca
